Lift the bonnet and release stay 4 from
its holder 5 . For your own safety, it is
very important to fix the stay into re -
tainer 3 in the bonnet.
Closing the bonnet
Before closing the bonnet, check to
make sure that nothing has been left in
the engine compartment.
To close the bonnet, replace stay 4 in
holder 5. Hold the middle of the bonnet
and guide it down to 20 cm above the
closed position, then release. It will latch
automatically under its own weight.
In the event of even a slight
impact involving the radia -
tor grille or bonnet, have
the bonnet lock checked by
an approved dealer as soon as pos-
sible.Ensure that the bonnet is
properly locked.
Check that nothing is pre -
venting the catch from lock-
ing (gravel, cloth, etc.).
